Yeah
yeah
exactly
good
that
makes
sense
and
then,
in
terms
of
the
open
source
project
itself,
now
that
you've
got
you
know
the
money
from
ink
space
et
cetera
any
tank
and
you're
putting
things
in.
How
are
you
managing
the
project
and
making
sure
that
you
know
the
open
source
is
separate
from
whatever
commercial
activities
you
are?
Is
there
some
kind
of
magic
firewall
or
is
it
all
open
source?
And
then
just
everything
is
services
and
support
on
top.
A
Well,
I
should
I
should
mention
that
the
open
source
project
is
deliberately
distributed,
copyright,
it's
not.
Actually
the
code
isn't
actually
going
to
maintain.
We
just
happened
to
hire
happen
to
have
all
most
of
the
developers
working
for
us.
So
obviously
we
have
a
lot
of
influence
with
the
roadmap,
but
our
goal
is
to
build
a
vibrant
developer
community
that
is
not
just
funded
by
us,
because
we
want.
B
A
B
A
B
Because
I
tend
to
see
file
system
updates
in
any
given
kernel,
lots
of
them
for
better
for
worse.
There
was
a
a
lot
of
lately.
There
was
a
lot
of
activity
with
butterfest,
but
I
haven't
seen
a
whole
lot
of
ceph
stuff
in
the
last.
Maybe
two
or
three
kernels
is
that
is
that
something
that
I
might
have
missed,
or
is
that
you've.
A
B
B
A
Can
clone
into
new
images
and
suddenly
make
an
instant
copy
and
write
copy
and
then
boot
your
vm,
without
waiting
for
a
bunch
of
data
to
move
over
the
network?
And
that
will
be
that's
supported
today
in
library
which
links
to
kvm
directly.
But
if
you
want
to
use
the
kernel
rvdriver
that
support
isn't
in
place
yet,
and
so
that
will
come
soon.
That.
B
A
Of
things
yeah,
it
means
the
main
thing
it
means
is
that
you'll
be
able
to
create
a
new
virtual
machine
in
your
cloud
environment
that
boots
up
instantly.
You
won't
have
to
currently
most
cloud
stacks
will
instantiate
an
image
file
on
the
local
disk
and
they
actually
have
to
download
the
operating
system.
B
A
A
slow
operation
and
then
the
new
kernel
begins
to
boot
in
the
virtual
machine,
and
this
will
let
it
instantly
so
there's
no
there's
no
delay.
It'll
also
enable
some
future
features
like
being
able
to
migrate.
The
storage
from
one
set
pool
storage
to
another.
So
it's
backed
by
different
storage
devices
all
seamlessly,
while
the
vm
is
still
running.
But
that's
right.
